I cooked dandelions today and they taste great (similar to spinach). Wish they are more widely available but unfortunately in the US, Monsanto has brainwashed an entire nation into thinking that dandelions must be eradicated. They are very nutritious too.
I bought them from a store but they grow in my garden all the time. There is just a huge stigma as people see it as a weed because of all the marketing.
Recipe: Blanch and drain water, sautee with olive oil, garlic, (opt) onions. Add chilli flakes/powder, salt, pepper, lemon juice
